The UAE Federal Tax Authority (FTA) is introducing a mandatory e-invoicing system requiring businesses to issue, transmit and receive invoices in a standardised digital format through an accredited service provider connected to the FTA's central platform.
Unlike simply sending PDF invoices by email — which is not e-invoicing — the UAE system requires invoices to be generated in a structured XML format, transmitted through a certified Peppol Access Point, and reported to the FTA in real time.
For many businesses this means changes to their ERP systems, accounting software, internal processes and supplier relationships. The earlier you start, the smoother the transition.
From initial readiness assessment through system implementation, testing and go-live — we manage the entire e-invoicing transition so your business is compliant, on time and without disruption.
We review your current invoicing processes, systems and data flows to identify exactly what needs to change — giving you a clear, prioritised action plan before you spend a dirham on implementation.
We work with your IT team and software providers to configure your systems for Peppol BIS 3.0 compliance — ensuring seamless integration between your ERP or accounting software and your certified Access Point.
E-invoicing intersects directly with your VAT compliance. We ensure your e-invoice setup correctly captures all mandatory VAT data fields, aligns with your existing VAT returns and meets FTA requirements for real-time reporting.
Your finance and procurement teams need to understand the new processes. We provide practical training and ongoing compliance support — so your team is confident operating the new system from day one.
E-invoicing is not just an IT project. It sits at the intersection of tax compliance, accounting and technology — which is exactly where ECOVIS JRB operates.
Unlike pure IT firms, we approach e-invoicing from a tax compliance perspective first — ensuring your system meets FTA requirements, not just technical specifications.
Our tax team manages your existing VAT compliance — meaning your e-invoicing setup is fully aligned with your VAT position from day one, with no inconsistencies.
We work with all major cloud accounting platforms used by UAE businesses — Xero, QuickBooks, Zoho Books, SAP and Oracle — and know exactly what each requires.
We plan and execute implementations with minimal disruption to your day-to-day operations — testing thoroughly before go-live so there are no surprises.
As FTA guidance on e-invoicing evolves, we proactively update our clients — so you are always ahead of new requirements, not scrambling to catch up.
Through ECOVIS International, we draw on Peppol implementation experience from member firms across 80+ countries where e-invoicing is already established.
We review your current invoicing processes, systems and data — mapping exactly what needs to change and in what order. You receive a clear written action plan with timeline and resource estimates.
We design the technical and process solution — selecting the right Peppol Access Point, configuring invoice data mapping and defining the integration approach with your existing systems.
Our team works alongside your IT team and software providers to configure systems, build integrations and set up your connection to the FTA platform through your certified Access Point.
Rigorous end-to-end testing — including submission, validation and acknowledgement flows — before any go-live. We test real invoice scenarios across your transaction types.
Managed go-live with our team on hand to resolve any issues immediately. Followed by a hypercare period of ongoing monitoring and support as your team builds confidence.
